THURSDAY MOItXIXC, SEPT. 3, 1835.

Al The article on our first page, frum a Tennessee paper, notwithstanding Us length,, deserves an attentive consideration. It certainly evince* great ability, and a profound and philosophical spirit of observation. The writer, we think, conclusively proves that an acquiescence of the people in recent

Executive uiurpatiom, and in his nomination ofa successor through the machinery of the Baltimore Convent ion,!*51* terminate in the absorption of ail the powers of the Government in the Erecu tive branch, and, consequently, in the establish, ment of a monarchy in fact, if not in name. The 'recent conduct of the President, therefore, will be ^either applauded or lamented, as those who pass judgment on it favor a monarchical or a popular form of Government. Out we cannot think for a -moment, that any considerable portion of the parti, sums of the present Chief Magistrate, (even those whose conduct seem* to argue that they think be can do no wrong are aware of the monarchical tendency of the measures the? uphold. The Pre. #ident himself, hurried away by personal tikes and dislikes, and headlong passions, is guiltless of intentional injury to tlie constitution and laws of his country* and the people, grateful for his past services, are mislead through^he love and affection they bear him. We hope, §pwever, they will refeet, with this writer, upoft a fact attested by a?l history, That parties often Attain popular appellation* when their principles art Molly changed, and their conduct the very opposite of that which obtained them. If we wish to preserve the purity of our institutions, we must judge public men by their actions and not by their professions. Otherwise, we qrill be continually at the mercy of wolves in sheep's clothing—of men who, under the cloak of democracy, and an affected love for the pedple, are making giant strides towards the erection cf an Irresponsible despotism on the ruias of oar glorious republic. j* l," as ^JThii No. ends the third volume of the Courier, ^three year» sincc, it was established by the prevent proprietor, nnd bus been published under his sole management up to this time. The extensive circulation obtained by it, nnd the continned favor of tho Wnbnsh community, cnlls fur our grateful acknowledgments, nnd demands the further assurance thnt, in our future efforts, this kindness shall uot be forgotten. Much of ibis success, wo know, has been owing to tho ,good offices of personal and political friends— some of U, wo hope, to the manner in which we have endeavored to conduct the Courier. Our political opinions hnvo always been given with freedom und if wc have been compelled to conabnt error, wc have never, to our knowledge, inijjtontionnlly wounded the feelings of those who •*vere the violims of it. On tho contrary, many of them have found in us defenders, when wrong)y assailed—none of them, we are sure, any thing other than an open political opponent. The

Courier has never been made tho medium through which personal slander has gone forth to the publio, nor have irresponsible scribblers found its oolamns an out-let to their venom. We know our duty better and in no case, now or hereafter, shall we be tt shield to hide the bnd motive* and bad passions of unknown correspondents.— The columns of the paper have been, and now are, open to men of both parties to those who can •nd will writo to enlighten public opinion, even though their views should be contrary to our own. This is the prerogative of free press, and it is one always claimed hy the editor of I ho Courier. Conducting a very troublesome bimDfss, we have escaped many of its misfortunes. It is true, wo have mot with some difficulties— have teen some hard times encountered a breete, now and then, which ruckcd our bark little—but we hnvo been of good cheer—ftlways averting our eyes from the jpast, nnd looking without dismay to the/ufose,, To the future we again look with confidence, and are willing to commit our welfare to the arbitration of the Wabash community. •v 'JL-1 l.lHLagja."lllf "W-1CT •*f-r TO StflSkCRlBKRS.

CEff. TOWSON AND 30\f. ELLIOTT. It appears from along documentary communication, from Gen. Towson, the present Paymaster General of the army, in the N. Y. American, that a paper warfare of some bitterness bas t»ee? recently going on between that grntleman and *be renowned Commodore Elliott. We gather from 'the correspondence, that

Commodore having* in one of his late pamphlets, inadequate misstatements in relation tShi« owi\ prowess ia the capture of two British v^seli (Det4)itntd Caledonia) daring the last war, and also iotel|||»D to the conduct of General Towson on the same occasion, the latter gentleman requested an explanation, and hence a controversy ensued. -.

During the riots in Baltimore the furniture of one dwelling was preserved by the lady of the house appearing at tbe door and addressing the mob, who, after hearing her, quietly oufired off. The iudy (Mrs. Knrtic) subsequently published a card in the papers, thanking tbe mob for their forbearance. Tbe husband has since published another card, in which be assures his friends that his wife's publication was made without bis knowledge, and never could hate obtained .bis approbation!!

The "Obscure Coy'' of tho Free Prets has hauled down the Webster flag—at least, itdidu't appear in his lust paper. The fellow is getting prudent, and will learn a little common sense after a while. He will at least find that the noble deeds of his ancestors, including their services ••under Gen. II ARSIJON," does not give him any right to compel ihe Wbigs of Indiana to "serve under" every rap scallion who may choose to become an Eduor. A few sound drubbings will convince him that he is not half so great a man as be might he.

VENEZUELA.

By advises from Venezula, published in the New York Daily Advertiser, it appears that Ex-President Paez has been proclaimed Supreme Chief of the Republic by the city of Valencia. It will be recollccted that President Vargas was lately seized hy a handful of troops and sent out of the country. The present is a counteracting movement, and if sustained, will lead to the restoration of order and law. General Marino is appointed Commanding General oft! .:, Liberating Army.

ARRIVAI or CAPT. BACK. The Montreal Herald of Saturday announces the arrival of Captain Back at Lnchine L. C. on his return from the polar regions in search of Captain Ross (who has long since reached England.) Captain Buck is stated in to be in flue health and spirits.

J!fine Fleece.—The Warren Staraay*—A «heep 3 years old, and or the Spanish breed, raised by Mr. Joseph M. Smith, cf Barrington, was sheared during the present season, and yielded a fleeac weighing 10 lbs. 11 oz. This same sheep was shorn of fleece in 1834, weighing 10 lbs. 5 oz.— The wool was clean, and ofa good quality.

Extract of a letter from Bi$aloy JV. F. "You have touched the right string at last.— Harrison is tho man beyond all doubt. There is a fire kindling on the whole line of the Niagara frontier —tho old soldiers are coming out and asking if Gen. Harrison is to ho the candidate. They all know hire, and served under him when ho commanded Perry on tho Lakes. Many were with him at Tippecanoe, and all love him as a straight forward, honcsl, and sensible old soldier, bravo man, nnd a patriot. Thu politicians here nflect to sneer, but they exactly ?o when Jackson wn%. ftr*t mimfitl. Tho Vnn Buren men certainly treated Jackson's pro»pccts with more Contempt then than they now do Harrison's— and who knows but Providence may raise him .up to save the country nnd keep tho Union together? Why cannot the whole south unite upon him? He is a Virginian by birth. Whycnnnot the wholfc west go for him He is a kind of father to tho wih'erni^s. What objection can the ea»t have to Gen. Harrison, who is not pit dg* ed to support one interest to the injury of another, anil who is a republican of tho old school? It does appear to me that he is the very man that every section can unite upon. Wc Minll run up his (lag on tho frontier, and if Ohio, Kentucky,Indiana and Pennsylvania will go for him, he is safe beyond doubt."

Oen. Harrison was nominated for the Presidency hy public meeting of thecitjaens of Augusta county, Vn. at Staunton, on the 27th ult.—Col. James Crawford in the chair. Committees of Addrcssand Correspondence were appointed, on which we remarked the namo of Robbert S. Brooke, Esq. Member of the late and next House of Delegates. The friends of Harrison nre requested to hold similar meeting throughout the State and Union. Augusta is an old Opposition county nnd tho Stnunton Spectntor asserts that public opinion there is unanimosly in favor of the General.^

It was remarked of Whitebread, the great I.on" don Brewer, that he could easily imagine how a man with a thousand pounds could make a hundred thousand, but it was almost incomprehensible to him, how a man with nothing could accumulate a hnndrcd pounds. St is certain that the great obstruction in the path to wealth,lies at the first step, but bad Mr. Wfiitcbread lived in the United States he would have seen how easily a hundred pounds can be made by an industrious and frugal man. In Philadelphia alone there arc hundreds of wealthy m«n, who began with a single dollar, as mechanics ami day laborer^, and the whole of the western country is filled with such. To get rich, however, requires not only that man should work hard, but that after he has earned his money, he should not fool it away. A large portion of the poverty ami suffering which we sec around "us, or hear so much of, arises from sheer wastefulness and disregard of small matters. We will undertake to aver, that the absolute distraction which takes place in families without4*e««fiUng any body, in provisions fiisd, lights, &c. would account for tbe whole difference between want and plenty, kfBuence and indigence. [Ait'waa/ Gjzitfe.

On Friday, 93th of August, after lingering illncM,Mrs. ELIZABETH ARMSTRONG, aged 73 years and 8 months, consort of A so* it Aanrraows, Esq. of this place. Tbe deceased emigrated to the west forty years since in company with ber surviving companion, to whom she had been united at the time of ber death, upwards of fifty year*. Nine children born daring her earthly existence, are all yet living, and it has pleased Almighty Providence, in Hi* wis* dote, that the family circle should he first broken by her removal to another and better world.

It will be seen by thefoUowing letters, that/the unfortunate individual, lately hung is Virginia, near /.yncAburgb, Can appropriate same for the town under the ciraumstanceiw} upon suspicion of being an incendiaiy^At^lititMp, w$» of a character entirely different from )hat for which he was murdered—we say murdered, for it is "the only word which indicates the real nature of the deed. He was mistaken for another man bearintf tim same name. What an admirable instinct: of "patriotrim,*' as defined by Mr. Postmaster General in his edifying letter, upon which we commented the other day, is furnished hy this, ''disregard" of the laws, tikis exemplification of the beautiful,doctrine that we owe "higher obligation to the||itotmunities in which we live, than we do to ranuTwa."

Jo the. Editors of tbe Enquirer. ^HALIFAX, Co., Aug,, 6th, 1835. Io your pappf of the 31st of July* the statement is made that, "the first number of 'Human Rights' bail been picked up on Thursday last, in the cabin of the steamer Kentucky, on ber way from Norfolk tu Richmond. Reports"were seon •circulated that the man nad come to Richmond, &c. that he had circulated several papers of the same description in Richmond,1' &c. A printed handbill has been sent from Richmond to

Reins' Tavern, in Prince Edward county, and from thnt place to Mount Laurel, in Halifax, in the neighborhood of which place I now am stating, I am informal}, (1 have not seen the handbill, that suspicion attaches to a young man, a foreigner, just from Nsw York, named Robertson, who left Richmond on Friday morning in the stage for Reins? Tavern, &c. Now, sir, 1 am that person. I am given notice, that if I cannot clear myself from the charges brought agaiust me, I cannot remnin in safety where I am. I am likewise told, that if I am dismissed from this neighborhood^ with thgse suspicions, entertained agninst me, I cannot returu in safety the road I travelled to.this neighborhood, so excited is the public feeling against me on nccount of my supposed conduct.

In this state of things, it seems to me, that the only course left to me, is to address myself to you, who presented the case to the public, and through you to the Mayor and Council of the city of Richmond, whose attention the case has already engaged. Understand me? I am not complaining of you, of them, or of any one—I only ask, to be fairl/heard, and fairly judged. 1 say, then, I aririved in Richmond on Thursday evening in the steambout Thomas Jefl'erson, "not the #teamer Kentucky," remained in Richmond Wednesday and Thursday, at the house of Mrs. Christian, near the Capitol.»eft Richmond oh Friday morning, So'clock, for Reins.' I brought on a trunk from the north for Mrs. I)r. Rice, of Virginia and left it at Mrs. Christian's. I mention this circumstance, that it may be reccollectcd at Mrs. Christian's that I was certainly there. Then, sir, if I was in Richmond Wednesday and Thursday, I could not have beon the individual who was in Norfolk, and on his v. ay from Norfolk, on Thursday, dropped the first number of"IIuman Rights," &c. I never was in Virginia before July, 1835. I never was in .Norfolk.

I came in a p-ckct within 40 miles of Richiitbnd, and travelled the 40 mile* in the boat Thomas Jefferson, paying 1 lollar, and not recording my name at all, not being called on to do so, and not knowing that it was required or proper to do so. I am a native of Scotland, an entire stranger where I am, having been here but a few days—my occupation is the peaceful and quiet one of a teacher. I never have meddled with the slave question, and do not entertain the sentiments of the abolitionists. I have been acquainted nearly three yea#w«jit|» the Hev. John lirockcnnuge, and would refer any gentleman to him for a knowledge of my character. I ask., sir, as an act of justice, that you publish this plain statement, and likewise that the Mayor and Council of the City of Richmond inquire into the circumstances, and publish theirdecision. 9 write with great haste, that I may he in time for the mail, but it dees not occur to me, that I omit any circumstances that it is important to mention. I am, Sir,

CHARLOTTE, July 6, 1835.

From a perusal cf the enclosed, you will see the importanceto the individual involved, of prompt and decked action in the case and nothing need be adde!, I feel persuaded, to ensure it from and these to whom he addresses himself. I am, your obedient servant,

A GRHAT SPECULATION.—A gentleman of the bar, in a neighboring county, in esi«y jgjrcquistances and pretty good practice* had rendered himself some what remarkable by h's attempts in the way of matrimonial speculation. A maiden, rather advanced in years, residing some miles distant in the neighborhood, hearing of ihe lawyer's speculating propensity—that his character was unexceptionable, nnd his sitnation in life tolerably gStd—resolved upon making him her hu-bnnd. She hit upon the following expedient: —She pretended suddenly to be taken very ill, and sent for the man of the law to draw ber will. He attended for that purpose. By her will she devised $10,000 in bank stock, to be divided among her three cousins—some thousands in bonds and notes to niece—and a vast landed estate to a favorite nephew. Tbe will being finished she gave him a very lihcral fee, and enjoined s*?cfecy upon him for pretended purposes—tbus precluding bira from an enquiry into her real circon.ftni.ces. Need I mention the result? In a fortnight she thought proper to be again restored to health. The lawyer called to congratulate her on her restoration—brgged permission to visit ber, which was politely given. After a short courtship, tbe desired offer was made. Tbe bargain was concluded, and ratified by the priest.—The lawyer^* whole estate by this wife consists of an annuity of sixty-fire dollars.— Western Paper.

-WESTERN ELOQUENCE.

The following is said to have been delivered at the last anniverMiy of our independence in Butler county, Ohio. After reading it, the Michigan!*ns must feel "ptctty considerably exflunctifjed and used up." Gentlemen, filler Citizens, and Soger*— the White Hawks of Mitidletoum.-

Tbe greatness of the occasion is my apology for addressing yon at this time. Warwith its brazen Jront, is bellowing OH our frontiers the audacious %[ol vereens have got hold of the northeast corner of our lovely Ohio, and are trying to flop it over into a mud hole, or something hyperbolical^ mean.

Feller citizens,'Sogers: Gentlemen, the White Hawks of Jrtiddletown—Can yon sit still and see ihe very soil tetdtally jerked out from under you, and your wives and infenceless infants made menial slaves to howling jlfolvereens? I cannot believe it you who have ever been foremost to hunt down the copper colored red-skins, the fernacious jjbrogoins of the flowry buckeye groves, I have no TOubt will you desultingly march on to the frontier, as did General sflM||lfayne with the brave Pioneers of old. It is not

_1 dut)'. Fr-ller Citizens, Sogers, on this occasion to enter into diminution suffice it to say that these rumgulmous^ Wolvereens have come down on our frontier with cow hides, butcher knives, hoes, plow shears, pokers, 8tc. They have laid bare our fields untopt our corn cribs, and dumb straddle our fences, with horses, cows snd baggage wagons.— They've gnawed the bark from our elm trees, ravished our potato patches, and turned our wives and children from their sweet home, to spend long nights in hollow sycamores, and live on roots and hitter yarbs. They have, Feller Citizes, Sogers, done that which is more intentious, more invoking and wolfish still. Yes, Feller Citizens, Sogers, they have potended to ca'ebash our citizens, and misprison our state authorities in the petinysembly they have even, contrary to all generous and hospital rules, come down with their sleeves rolled up, shaking their fists in the very nose and eyes of all Buckeyes.- By these grimaces they have exactly flabergasied our Govenor, and most considiously exflunctified his most honorable .staff. Are not these indemnities. Feller Citizens, Sogers, enough to make the blood turn white in the cheek of a Buckeye, and curdle in his very pericardinary Who will submit to it' I repeat it, I consumptuously ask, who will submit.' Will the MidSletown White Hnwks? I negateously answer no! Your fathers' stern spirits would start to the grave yard, shouldyou not voraciously shQulderyour knapsacks and go pluinberatiously to the line. I feel confi-a dent, Feller Citizens, Sogers, that you have not lost a spark of the fire of '76—the fire that burned in the bosoms of our grand-fathers,. and impelled them to exclaim these united colonics, Ohio and the rest on'em, free and dependent soverign states this declaration, believe me, Feller Sogers, was made just about exactly fifty or sixty years ago today. And now, shall that pond-washed peninsula, that sprung but yes'.erday from a quagmire, and is ene amost nothing but a black ash swamp, no how you can fix it, inhabited by mud turtles, musketoes, and Wolvereens—shall she send down upon a dignified

her carniferous flat foots, cxcoriate our

timber land, eat our hog-pens, and impugnaceously shed the blood of consulted feller citizens! No as long as a drop of blood is left in the venes of a White Hawk, our frontier shall be protected.— When I think of it, I burn to lead you on. Never was a war more jjist. Picture to yourself, Feller Citizens, Sogers, a strait line run smack spang, like a streak of chalk, right across the right eend of Ohio, the very soil we trod on, plump through potatoe patches, corn cribs, and wood piles, smack smooth into the lake—and then ask ourselves if this is not a just war? O!. my countrymen! Feller Citizens Sogers! the eye of the state is upon you! honors high invite you!. victory, in prospect, is shaking her palm at you! and the blue-eyed gals of the line are i.i every grove weaving wreaths for your mortal perecraniums! Then take, take up your arms, unfurl your banner—let no pottersfield associations tarnish or confurl your collors or oblivionize your glittering buttons, but let the banner of White Hawk be spread, and let pinions be stretched, let them catch the rays of the shining sun, and float more widely and desultory on the air than a shirt on a bean-pole, a

Feller Citizens, Sogers, let but the moment of your departure from Middletown b« anounced, let it be printed in big letters in the newspapers that WHITE HAWK COMES TO REVENGE THE SCANDIFEROUS DIGRESSIONS OF THE FRONTIER, and the Governor will contaminaceoiudy cUch the spirit of malicious glory, the Legislature will be sent home, recruits from every nook and corner iwill flock to your standard as in Marion's of old, Orphans and widow's will pour tears of ingratitude in your path behind you, and the most obstreperous Wovercens, who, according to Shakspeare,

Clothed in a little brief authority. Have played such fantastic tricks befote high Heaven As made the Angtls weep,"

will be sp'endashing'y met odeiiferously fTogged, scumbulgingly routed, and foot, horse and dragoon tetotashty used up, in little less than the winking of a cherry bed-post, while not a feather shall be pulled from the tail of a White Hawk. Here then, you may extinguish your names in mortal glory, and have your deeds trumpeted bevond the bound ofa hemisphere while to you shall belong the honor of magnetically straitening the long computed boundary line, in spite of all the musketoes, snakes and Wolvereens in Michigan, and all the whales in old Erie. In conclusion, Feller Citizens, Sogers, you see the high conderiferous honors that are hovering over your arms, you all feel the most justist cause of war repell you on you have heard of the extinctification of our honorable Governor, of the amalgamation of the chain bearers and bayonets and bullets ot the bewildering cry of tbo depressed and consulting frontier, of the penetration of potatoe patchcs, of the abolition of corn-cribs, and the colonization of men, women and children in hay mows and bean patches. But I observe that you are already blazing with the smoke of vengance: I perceive I have already contained you too longt condignity is flashed around the white of your ej es —you burn for the scrim«ge. Then be men, Feller Citizens, Sogers, and turn not to your homes till tbe last VVolvereen is heard to cry quarters! quarters! from the deepest quagmire in michigan. Then shall you brows be surrounded by a semicircle of glory, and your temples wreathed with the diadem of the Ceasars!

"Haveyou heard the news, Aunt Dolly?',said a ragged little urchin, runing into the house. "No, deary." Well, I'll tell it to yon nutity.'' "What is it, my little nianf*7 "Yon know our Frank run away and went to sea?" "Yes."— "Well, the French, it is said, nre going to pay us 25,OOU,QOO of Franis, and 1 guess, aoniy, our Frank will be among Ibem."

A CoJSTRAST.—An Old Farmer,in a communication in the London Morning Chronicle, siliudet to the talk about distress and baldness of the times nnd compares the conduct of tbe agri-cnltn-liJt in his early days with the gentlemen farmers of tbe present day. He says:

E O W O S B. A. FAIINESTOCK 'S,

MICHAEL MEDSKER,

The Genulue Vermifuge Is now put fill one ounce vials, with this impression upon the glass, "FAHNESTOCK'S VERMIFUGE," and the directions accompanying the vial have nameof the proprietor —any medicine put up in plain ounce via!s, snd the signature of which does not correspond with the above description, is not my Genuiue Vermifuge.

The subscriber deems it his duty to use the'sbove precautions in ord^r to guard the public against mistaking other worm preparations for his deservedly popular Vermifuge.

CAUTION.

The reputation which this medicine has acquired in consequence of Its superior efficacy, has induced an individual, who is entirely ignorant of the nature and properties of medicine, to attempt its preparation and who is now offering to tbe pyblic, (with a view to effect sales upon the.reputation of my preparation,) a spurious imitation of ibis valuable and well known medicine.

It is put up in the same kind of vials and envelope, and my directions are copied word for word, and in every way calculated to deceive snd mislead unguarded persons. I deem it but justice to apprize the public of this circuinstance,and assure them, that the attempt at imitation has been found, upon examination, to be destitute of the active principle upon which the entire efficagy of my medicine depends. Its administration must, consequent be attended with danger—no advantage can result from its use. The public will be particular to enquire for p. A. F*v*s«T0CK'i
